Simple gas-liquid chromatographic method for the measurement of disopyramide in blood-plasma or serum and in urine. 1978

A M Hayler, and R J Flanagan

A simple method has been developed for the measurement of disopyramide in blood-plasma or serum at the concentrations attained during therapy. A relatively small (200 microliter) sample volume is made basic and extracted with 50 microliter of chloroform containing an internal standard, and the extract is analysed directly by gas-liquid chromatography with flame-ionization detection. The instrument calibration is linear and passes through the origin of the graph. Neither solvent transfer nor evaporation steps are used in the extraction procedure, which takes less than 3 min to complete, and urine specimens may be analysed by an analogous technique. No interference from either endogenous sample constituents or other drugs has been observed, although a simple back-extraction procedure is described which eliminates potential interference from a small number of basic and neutral drugs.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008832	Microchemistry	The development and use of techniques and equipment to study or perform chemical reactions, with small quantities of materials, frequently less than a milligram or a milliliter.
D011725	Pyridines	Compounds with a six membered aromatic ring containing NITROGEN. The saturated version is PIPERIDINES.
D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D004206	Disopyramide	A class I anti-arrhythmic agent (one that interferes directly with the depolarization of the cardiac membrane and thus serves as a membrane-stabilizing agent) with a depressant action on the heart similar to that of guanidine. It also possesses some anticholinergic and local anesthetic properties.
